Summer nights can be spent gazing at the stars on our hammock next to the river or playing an old game of horseshoes. This is a special cabin for people to make fabulous memories.

Lovely home. Everything was very nice and esp liked that they had supplies there e.g. toilet paper, paper towels, extra food if i needed. Very tranquil! The downstairs area is so nice with extra seating, can grill, hammock and a spider swing (so relaxing!). The cold pool is not to swim in though. Would def rent this place again.

Church retreat

I had an amazing time with my students. We hung out, relaxed, ate too much junk food and studied the Bible. We even had a foot washing ceremony. Great place. Great location.

Loved it!

We loved staying here! Planning on coming back as soon as we can. Owner was very quick to respond to messages and super helpful. My favorite part was the front porch in the evenings and in the mornings while I drank my coffee. Saw a bald eagle twice while we sat out there.

Rooms were clean, pet friendly was nice being able to have our fur baby there. It’s a great place to get away and enjoy the beautiful scenery the cabin was beautifully decorated. And a nice place to gather with friends if wanted to. I highly Recommend to others.

Fully stocked, home away from home! Easy communication with the host. Literally right next door to the 4hr tubing trip drop off through Louisiana Adventures. A blast was had. 10/10. No WiFi however we brought our mini Starlink and had zero problems with connection/service. I'm so happy I've found this home and plan on booking again in the future

Rustic Country Cabin Getaway

This was perfect. It was our son’s wedding and the groomsmen and us and our children hung out here before and after the wedding ceremony. Just the right amount of getaway but still close to amenities if someone needed something. The river is beautiful and the cabin is perfectly accommodating for our large group of family and friends. The guys loved the came fire , the kids enjoyed the loft. Everyone had their own space. Thank you. Would definitely recommend and consider reserving the cabin again.
